    I love when kitties have you know, their normal fur length, most of it is that length, but then they have this like, aura of longer hairs sticking out.

    I really want to skritch those little muzzlepuffs. *sigh*

  2. speedwell says:

    I HURT for another marmalade boy, but I’m overcatted as it is in my small apartment with my three. :(

  3. Pussytoes says:

    Marmalade kitty! Spread him on toast, yum.

  4. Tuldas says:

    I wish to floomp about as well. Can I floomp somewhere nearby said kitteh?

  5. Marty says:

    I think floomp is my new favourite word!

  6. Cerise says:

    [Cerise gets nose-to-nose with kitteh]

    “Who’s a pretty boy? You are! YOU are! Oh, I’m gonna git my nose in there and oh pretty kitty wuff wuff snorgle…”

    [kitteh stares balefully into space, praying for death]

  7. golfwidow says:

    That cat looks like he’s dreaming of Solla Sollew, where they never have troubles (at least, very few).

  8. useta hada kitteh says:

    YAY!!! Dis guy is K Y double OOH T CUTE! I wanna floomp wif he. Cuz he’s cute. And there can’t be no argufying of dat, can there? (Checks under nearby rocks, keeps troll repellent handy…)

    Hand me the purry object!

  9. AuntieMame says:

    Hah! If there was any justice in the world, I would be floomping instead of working, too.

    I just got finished cat-sitting for a friend, and she (the kitty) was great pals with the kitties across the back fence, one of which was a marmalade with the most amazing orange eyes. As in orange lollipop-colored. I have never seen a kitty with orange eyes.

  10. julia2 says:

    reminds me of a book from childhood where a tiger had to pretend to be a rug, or something along those lines.. this pic is just too cute :)

  11. Jennie says:

    Jenne… that short for Jennifer? ‘Cause that’ll be a new one for me.

    Anyway, I love it when my kitten does this, but she’s never close to as cute as this ickle kitteh!

    Adorable! ^_^

  12. dextrigger says:

    my photos of my precious kitteh never get put on here.
    sadness.

    but this kitteh is edible!

  13. Drea says:

    Obscenely relaxed! Again!

  14. Allie and Jojo's Mom says:

    Me wantsta floomp too.

    *snuggles up to floompy kitters and gives him a big glompy snorgle*

  15. Katie says:

    I am just glad to be rid of the dog and peep show.

  16. Allie and Jojo's Mom says:

    Can we rename that post as The Post That Darenot Speak Its Name v. 2.0

  17. Kristie says:

    I think this kitty is recovering from last night’s bread puddy affair. He’s all like, “Wuh? Where’s the coffee? I’m not getting up until it’s ready.”

  18. chet's momma says:

    I love the way Floompy has his wittle bod spread over both piwwows! Mine!

  19. Michele says:

    I just wanna brush him pretty fur and press my nose to that widdo (runs tp hide from Teho) cold prosh nosie!!!!

  20. lauowolf says:

    I think kitteh started on the pink thing and just oozed over.
    If he keeps napping, my guess is he’ll slither down to (my) right.
    I want to hang out and watch to see if I’m right.
    Let me get a cup of tea, and a book, and I’ll just get settled here in the quiet.

  21. mariser says:

    oooooo how cute. teey tiny little face, spread out in an X pattern.
    what a lovely way to end a-not-so-lovely-week.

  22. jaypo says:

    Wow, what a sweet fella! That’s how I feel after yesterday–just askin’ for a hug and a smooch!

    “I have never seen a kitty with orange eyes.”
    My girlie had orange eyes. She was silky black and white longhair with pumpkin eyes. I heard it’s peculiar to Persians, though she was a mix-o-cat.

  23. rori says:

    He looks like the kind of super-relaxed kitty that if you picked him up, would just flop back and look at you like, “What’s up?”

  24. Redzilla says:

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, I said I was going to go do work, but I DIDN’T. Because I heard angels singing…and it sounded like a marmy kitteh purring.
    Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah.
    >shakes dust of PomChickGate from her heels…and rushes over to snorgle kitteh.

  25. A thinker says:

    YAY!!! Floofy Marmalade Kitty!!

    I wants him. I wants him so bad it hurts.

  26. Theo says:

    [gurrrrrgle...]

  27. ka9q's wife says:

    I think this kitty looks like a little marmie angel complete with halo of guard hairs.

    I just want to snorgle him and eat more pudding.

  28. NebraskaErin says:

    He’s not sleepy…he’s DARING you to take one of the pillows.

    Go ahead. Do it. I dare ya.

  29. Aubrey says:

    (wanders in, cup of thick coffee in hand)

    FLOOFY. PAWS.

    A baked marmalade. Yummy!

  30. mleiv says:

    This is what happens when you guys huff too much cat. Look at him, he aint got no bones left!

  31. lauowolf says:

    oooh Aubrey-

    Those Paws.
    That foot is as big as his face.

    My only question: Is there a cream belly under that marmalade, or is it marmie all the way down?

  32. jaypo says:

    “I just want to snorgle him and eat more pudding. “

    k9q,
    puddy + puddytat = heaven

  33. Lauri says:

    Too floomped to ehn!

  34. Cerise says:

    Yeah, somebody flip him over so we can see his belleh.

  35. Lauri says:

    It’s going to be a cold weekend to take boats outta the lake! AmyH, what is it in the ‘zona? 85?

  36. Lauri says:

    Lol, lauowolf, do you ask questions like that of your human friends?

  37. lauowolf says:

    mieve–
    ‘sawright.
    He’s just recouperating,
    We can huff him again in a few hours, if we let him sleep now.
    SHHHHHH.

  38. lauowolf says:

    Lauri-
    Weeeell, umm.
    I might *peek*

  39. Aubrey says:

    That is a limp, tired, kitters and I need to carry him him draped upon my shoulder.

  40. misscrisp says:

    oh LOL “is it marmie all the way down”??
    we’re a ripe bunch.
    my bebeh is flooomped out right next to me….yay.

  41. Subhangi says:

    EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

    *Scoops up marmie and makes a run for it*

  42. ariel says:

    the BABY! oh its sleepy grumpy little face! oh the little hairs sprouting off its ear-tips! oh the drapey tired paws! oh the orangey fluff! mmmamaaaaaaaaaaaaw

  43. ariel says:

    my jack is black w/that measure of floof, and orange eyes. the pumpkin king!

  44. Lisa says:

    That’s me on Monday morning.

  45. Aubrey says:

    I see a kit chin under which there needs to be much skritching.

    By golly, I wish I could have pets.

  46. Aaron DeLay says:

    “Look, I stared real mean at the mouse. I threatened the dog next door with a head nod. I hissed real soft at the fly buzzing around here. What more do you want from me?”

  47. Subhangi says:

    You said it, James.

    We needs a Glossary update, STAT!

    Aaron DL – LOL.

  48. Jessica says:

    Wow, that is a fuzzy wonderful kitty!

    And pillows that are being floomped on are of Flickr colours!

  49. Chris says:

    This’s it. I’m being reincarnated as a kitteh next time around. They’ve got the life, I tells ya!

  50. hrh.squeak says:

    The Magical Blue Couch strikes again! Loffly lovey.

  51. Theo says:

    HRH — I did wonder, but I think what we’ve got here (besides Mssr. Marmie Tres Magnifique) are 2 plush pillows and a bedsheet.

    We are couchless and denied.

  52. Don’t know if this is post cat nip floomping but for those who want cat nip might find
    http://www.edirectory.co.uk/pf/pages/default.asp
    good, especailly the giant cat nip

  53. Jenne says:

    Floompy. lol. I want a new cat now so I can name it Floompy. I love that! ROFL! And I *did* use the word floomp in conversation this morning.. my coworker came in with the box containing my new cell phone I’ve been waiting for and while I was clapping and saying YAY ME (yep), she FLOOMPED the box onto my desk! I said HEY SHEESH lets not be throwin that around like that huh!!

    and yes.. Jenne.. short for Jennifer.. I did that 13 years ago thinking I was being creative and original and different. Turns out I was just being confusing. ;)

  54. Jenne says:

    I guess that did not illustrate how I used floomp in conversation.. not that it matters.. but I DID use the word a few minutes later when relaying to a friend the story about the box being “floomped” onto my desk. Really.

  55. ceebs says:

    oh megaw….
    I want this kitteh to floomp on my head. or at least over my arm like Frieda with the naturally curly hair’s boneless cat Faron.

  56. Gryph says:

    Just looking at this picture makes me sleepy. *yawn*

  57. Fred says:

    JUST floomped around? Floomping is serious business when you’re a cat.

  58. Aubrey says:

    This is just a friendly warning. STAY AWAY from the Pom Post. STAY AWAY.

    And stay focused on the marm. And breathe (huff) deeply.

  59. Aaron DeLay says:

    “This is just a friendly warning. STAY AWAY from the Pom Post. STAY AWAY.”

    It’s bad. I pulled Kermit the Frog in for some help, but I dun think it’s gonna help.

  60. little miao says:

    too cute… little kitten needs a snuggle…

  61. Alexis says:

    Ohhh, my aching head… After last night’s brandy rice pudding pomtini fiasco I need some dry toast.’

    Ok, maybe I’ll spread some orange marmelade on it…

  62. TastesLikeChicken says:

    Jenne, can you imagine everyone’s face at the vets when they announce that the vet will see Floompy now!

  63. Julia says:

    This is yet another example of feline relaxation superiority. Of all the animal friends I have ever had, my gatos are definitely the most creative and artful slumberers. This reminds me of the Garfield cartoon strips wherein Garfield would purposefully rest and sleep in bizarre poses. SIlly gatos.

  64. Aubrey says:

    TLC:

    Hopefully their faces would express the purest joy.

  65. Rhea Harding says:

    me want !!!

  66. TastesLikeChicken says:

    Aubrey’ I imagined awe tinged with jealousy;D As in “Why didn’t I think of that!”

  67. Alexis says:

    TLC: Actually, I always get a reaction from the vet when I have to call for an appointment or bring my cat in. It’s kinda fun.

    Her name is Snack. (She loves to eat.)

  68. lurkertype says:

    Oooh, we used to tell our marmie boy “You’ve got cat hairs sticking out of your cat fur!” Like this guy.

    I predict he oooooozed farther down, left paw leading.

  69. Aubrey says:

    When my parents would bring the family cat, Pandora, to the vet, the nurse would always announce her by her name, with our family name attached to it. It was nice.

  70. AmyH says:

    Lauri – we’re supposed to be 102 today. We had glorious week or two in the 90s and have been back in the 100s for a few days.

    The mornings are high 70s and then will hit 80 around 8:30 a.m., 100′s probably around 2:00 p.m.

  71. Cerise says:

    …and now we go to Sports.

    James?

  72. Aaron DeLay says:

    “…and now we go to Sports.

    James?”

    “…the Eagles beat the Chickens with a dog eat dog defense…”

  73. AuntieMame says:

    Don’t you mean “dog eat chick defense”?

  74. Aaron DeLay says:

    After I posted it, I realized how I should have phrased it. It’s so friday…;)

  75. Theo says:

    [singsong]
    I’m already hoooome!
    I’m already hoooome!

  76. Aubrey says:

    T., I have another hour and 1/2! STOP IT!!

  77. Theo says:

    [stretching baaaaack in the Bungee Chair of Delight]
    [spelled correctly this time]

    Aaaaaaahhh.

  78. Frankie says:

    When my sweet Dot (who is a calico jam) does that pose, I call it “splat-cat.” It is irresistable! Cats who splat (or floomp) require emergency pounce-and-kiss stops!

  79. lauowolf says:

    Mom!

    Someone’s let the air out of the cat again!

  80. Aquila says:

    Quote lauowolf:
    “Mom! Someone’s let the air out of the cat again!”

    Bwah!
    Ow…That hurt

    Y’alls are too funny! I needed that!

  81. fruityoaty says:

    OMG, that’s so cute. He reminds me of my cat, Max… when he was little.

  82. acelightning says:

    Oh, that is just so perfectly …*feline*. Cats, and especially kittens, have a lot to teach us about the subtle art of relaxation.

  83. lizzard says:

    i just love marmalade cats. i loved that book as a kid.

  84. Netherland Dwarf rabbit, owner!!♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ says:

    Of all the marmalade kitten pics this is my most fave as far back as I can recall seeing them on C O.

    No…My guess is that other marmalades are tied with this one…

    They are featured quite often so this can’t be THE CUTEST marmalade kitty to be posted here.

    But I can’t recall the others right now.

  85. Susan says:

    I WANT TO BE A CAT!!!!!

  86. butteredtoast says:

    where did you get floomped??????
